Similar bus WWH 58L is turning from Oldham Road into Stockport Road at Lydgate, this time on 2nd April 1990. This bus was once GMT 7293. The registration dates from the early SELNEC era when each of the three divisions of SELNEC (Central, Southern and Northern) registered their buses in the tax office relating to the divisional headquarters. This bus has a Bolton registration showing that it was new to SELNEC Northern. This practice ceased in SELNEC days but would have become less apparent anyway as elimination of local registration offices meant the loss of local marks as we had known them.
